Osoro Family
The House of Osoro is a long lineage of ruthless pirates who make their fortunes pillaging on the high seas. They trace their roots back to Batesaor, an ancient port city and known pirate haven in the Principality of Zonasa of the Pirate Republic. When the Far East sunk below the waves, the Osoros emigrated to Itau in Dwilight.
Known Family Members
- Haide Osoro, oldest daughter of Oscar, currently in Tol Goldora
- Eztli Osoro, youngest daughter of Oscar, currently in Yssrgard
Background
The House of Osoro follows the motto "Trust no one. Owe nothing. Never regret." Self-sufficiency, strength, and fearlessness are valued above all else. They carry Pagan beliefs and worship the seas and winds.
Their coat of arms consists of a field of black with a bend sinister of forest green and a silver bear sejant erect. Family legend says that this imagery comes from their origins millennia ago as bear-hunters, but this has never been proven. Regardless, the House Osoro leans into bear imagery, naming all of their ships and troops "Osos."
The current head of the Osoro house is the brutal pirate lord, Captain Oscar Osoro, who is known for his Osos Dorados. Oscar has gained infamy for his chilling charisma, unhinged temper, and cruel sense of humor, equally able to charm his enemies and raze entire villages for sport. At a few different times throughout their history, the Osoros have been legitimate minor nobles and knights—most recently in Itau—but Oscar's notoriety led him to separate entirely and go rogue.
He has two known daughters, Haide and Eztli, who were raised at sea alongside him. Oscar treated them more cruelly than his own men, regarding them as nothing more than a reflection of himself.
Appearance
Osoros are known for their unruly dark hair, gray-brown eyes, and freckled, tanned complexion. Traditionally, all Osoros will have many ear piercings and wear their hair in many small braids or wraps.
